The Best, Worst Inventions

Whether it's useless, insanely dangerous, or just straight up dumb. I challenge you to invent something brilliant that will probably never catch on. If you can, make a picture that helps show what your invention is. If you've actually made it, post a pic of it. Try to describe it in a way people will have some idea what the hell you're talking about.

This is an invention I made 15 years ago. I just crudely re did it in a couple minutes but whatever. I wish I could find the original plans.



So basically this is an rv with a back more like a full size trailer. The rv is powered by the wind coming in to multiple vents and spinning fans so you don't have to stop for gas when running from the cops.


The bottom dropped down underneath so you could get snowmobiles and dirtbikes(I drew a reg bike because I can't draw a dirtbike or motorcycle well) and what not in and out while moving. This was the dope bank robbery mobile.


I know now that you need something to power the car to keep it going but hell, I was 8.

based on some of the ones posted in this thread i would say this is in the same league. get ready: a straight arrow in a car. basically a completely useless blinking light on the hood that signifies the drivers intention to go straight. yes it is completely retarted but o well

I think I just found gold boys. Toothbrush with a replaceable toothpaste cartridge. Squeeze the handle and toothpaste goes up through the bristles

That would be an interesting grouping.


Dildos and toothbrushes? Do you offer combo deals? Clean your teeth while you fuck yourself?

I'm always game for a nice run from the cops. heres my semi related cop idea.

ok, so this is how you rob a bank truck carrying 30 million bars of gold, without even getting out of your car

scope out for the truck until you find it and get in front of it. on your car you have a hydraulic trailer. when you come to a stop light, you make sure they are right behind you. then, you back up your car and the trailer goes underneath the bank truck. once your underneath it, you press a button, lifting the truck right off its wheels!! then you drive away to your secret hideaway, and get the goods!

Amazing... That would be incredibly fun. there should have a way to move a rail or box from one side to the other. like the rail moves at you and you hop on. Someone build this!

I have thought about this before. It would be cool to have it so you can control the speed of the water to your liking and be able to tune the wake how you like it like any wakeboat

INB4 this gets stolen but.... A BMX hub that is much like a ratchet, and you have spring loaded brake lever. When you ride forward you don't grab the brake lever and the bike pedals and freewheels normally. When you grab the brake lever the ratcheting hub basically flips over and works backwards so now if you land switch you don't have to back pedal to avoid wheel lockup. Maybe you could also backpedal and take off switch?

free coaster hubs man. Do you not watch videos ever? Not sure if many people ride them, but they've been around at least 10 years.

Regarding Tex's video:
I'm trying to figure out what's funnier. The fact that it's called kush or the fact that it's a piece of plastic that you stick between your tits.

It's hardly "basically surfing." It's pretty much a hybrid of surfing, wake boarding and skim boarding. Which one it's closest too depends on how you ride it. If anything I'd say it's closer to wake boarding.

The way you can pop off and get that style of tricks yes, the actual thing not as much. Would shit you learn apply to wakeboard, sure. Just saying it's a lot different then getting towed behind a boat and jumping the wake.

Could you grab a rope and practice on a flowrider with handle passes, sure. Just saying the concept is much more like surfing than wakeboarding.


Yes throwing inverted 900s is much more like wakeboarding than surfing, I wasn't arguing that it wasn't

Damn... But you can't backpedal to move the bike can you? I mean If a guy could rip into a feature switch on a bike :| me gusta. Aha and honestly I love watching BMX videos but I don't often watch them. I only mountain bike...

I haven't really watched bike videos in forever. Since nachos and supreme were the sickest videos.

Idk, you could build it but it could go pretty poorly. Why do you need to accelerate going backwards anyway.


I guess you could build it for a specific couple tricks. Just like heres what I can do. Sort of like the snowboard tailwhip thing.

i've thought about this time and time again. the main problem that I see is how to you keep from getting slammed in to the back wall of the pool if you fall? You aren't going to be able to instantly stop that much water....

It could be a pretty long pool with some matts at the back? Also, how about a truck or car with minimal parts, easy to work on, easy to maintain. Ihad simple electronic modules and a simple wiring harness. Preferably electric powered because electric motors are way low maintainence in comparison to combustion engines.

I'm gonna make a site called red light green light. You choose what kind of porn your into at the start. So it starts off with some porn in the style you want and then randomly switches to the complete opposite kind of porn or completely fucked up things.


Example.

Two chick are groping each other and then start going at it, then it cuts to footage of beaten animals, then back to the the chicks, then cspan.

Something like that.

Your hands will still get cold when it's 30 degrees out. Plus koozies are worthless for me. I stopped buying them like 3 years ago. Pay 3 bucks for 1 and by your 3rd beer it's gone somehow. I don't know how people have ones from shows 10 years ago. I can't make it through 6 beers with one.

Also invented a new version of this weekend. Weld the hobo barrel to a wagon and have a boom box on it. Walk around and rage. Was at a fest this weekend that got down to 34 at night. Pretty fucking cold to be walking around in summer clothes, partying, and sleeping in ghetto ass tents.
